Hi Alan,

Let me point you at the API documentation for the report_helper class where you want to read about the columns option for the report_grid function. You may find this, for once, slightly easier to read by looking at the comments in the source code.

Taking the example of http://www.brc.ac.uk/iRecord/index.php?q=all-records and looking at the columns configuration list the setup, if I click the Edit Source link below so I can paste it here, is as follows.

[
  [
    {
      "display":"Actions",
      "actions":
      [
        {
          "visibility_field":"belongs_to_user",
          "url":"{rootFolder}enter-record-list",
          "urlParams":
          {
            "occurrence_id":"{occurrence_id}"
          },
          "img":"{rootFolder}/sites/all/modules/iform/media/images/nuvola/package_editors-22px.png",
          "caption":"Edit this record"
        },
        {
          "caption":"View record details",
          "img":"{rootFolder}/sites/all/modules/iform/media/images/nuvola/find-22px.png",
          "url":"{rootFolder}record-details",
          "urlParams":
          {
            "occurrence_id":"{occurrence_id}"
          }
        }
      ]
    }
  ]
]

Um, not very easy to read. Let me add a screen shot of it.

That should give you something to ponder.

OK, a couple of things first off:

1) The img file on my installation is at /sites/all/libraries/iform/media/images/nuvola/find-22px.png (rather than in /sites/all/modules etc.)

2) The {rootFolder} token doesn't seem to add anything - so the path to my image becomes http://sites/all/libraries/iform/media/images/nuvola/find-22px.png  and it's not found. Neither are the record details

I'm still struggling with this.  {rootFolder}record-details just takes me to an about:blank page.

Cheers

Hi Jim

When I click on Edit Source I get nothing - nothing at all!

Cheers

Alan

I can see there is a record details xml report and I can incorporate that into a grid on a pre-built form. i assume to get the details nicely laid out as in iRecord I'm going to have to build adapt a form form with some custom CSS?

In the meantime I've got a record-details form that accepts a record id parameter that I can use for testing - when we've sorted out {rootFolder}

Cheers

Hi Alan

I've been trying to recreate your problem, using Instant Indicia 0.8.2, but cannot.

I have two thoughts.

1. Simplify so that nothing but the Action column is included. I note there is a whole extra bit to your columns config that is cut off the bottom of the screenshot - I can just see the top of a box with a 1, hinting at its presence.

2. Browser incompatibilities. What browser are you using? Does the jsonwidget that is used to create the column configuration play nicely with your browser?

Jim Bacon.

Hi Alan,
Have you tried leaving out {rootFolder}? I didn't use it and my link goes straight to my view details (enter-record-list) page so I assumed it wasn't necessary.

My code looks like:

[
  {
    "display":"Actions",
    "actions":
    [
      {
        "caption":"edit record",
        "visibility_field":"belongs_to_user",
        "url":"submit-list",
        "urlParams":
        {
          "occurrence_id":"{occurrence_id}"
        },
        "img":"/records//sites/all/libraries/iform/media/images/nuvola/package_editors-22px.png"
      },
      {
        "caption":"view details",
        "url":"enter-record-list",
        "urlParams":
        {
          "occurrence_id":"{occurrence_id}"
        },
        "img":"/records//sites/all/libraries/iform/media/images/nuvola/find-22px.png"
      }
    ]
  }
]

Hope this helps,
Fiona

Hi Jim, Fiona

At your suggestion Fiona I tied leaving {rootFolder} out altogether, but that doesn't work for me.

Checking the source of my form reveals :  rootFolder: '//'

I've just installed FileVerifier++ but I don't immediately see how to get the checksums with it. I need to go out shortly so will look at this again later.

Cheers

Alan

Hi Alan.

After painstakingly working through the code, understanding that there was a bug that was affecting you because, I deduce, your forms are in the webroot and not a subfolder, I find that John already fixed this problem a couple of weeks ago in revision r5375.

If you patch your copy of report_helper.php around line 621 with the indicated change then all should be well.

I do wonder if we shouldn't replace the entire iform module with the version in the development trunk rather than use the version in Instant Indicia 0.8.2. Instant Indicia 0.8.2 is just a development snapshot and many of the bugs I have been helping people with turn out to have already been fixed. The dev version would still be buggy but at least I wouldn't feel like I was wasting my time.

Hi Alan

A value of

{rootFolder}sites/all/libraries/iform/media/images/nuvola/find-22px.png

for the img parameter ought to work for you since we now know {rootFolder} is going to resolve to / in your case.

Make sure that you do not put a / between {rootFolder} and sites as then you would have a double slash making a link that is interpreted as absolute rather than root-relative.

Jim Bacon.
